Local coop

Re: Local coop

Indeed. I also laughed out loud and then had to explain to bemused family members.

I laughed again when I translated it and saw it meant "Throughout the day"

Along these lines: would it be possible to come up with a single-ship coop mode? As in, nav officer controls scanner and movement, gunners take turrets, engineering takes shields and power and damage control. I ask because it would be pretty neat to set up a space battle with friends, especially if you're running, say, a space-based tabletop rpg and want the space battles to be more visceral than dice rolling.

I know Artemis does this but I've never seen it in action.

I don't see why it wouldn't be possible. LT would just have to accept multiple controller inputs, and then allow the user to assign the controller to a screen. From there the player could be given the particular controls for their specific function on the ship. This should be possible to mod into LT, the only limit would be the number of controllers your PC has.

That would be amazing. I'd set up LTSL-scripted battles in closed systems all day just to play them out with my friends.

That would be super cool! It reminds me of Artemis Ship Simulator, and having a more involved version of that would be fantastic! I want to see something like this in KSP too.

I'll put in my agenda to laugh at this in 2 years or so when I've seen that movie

I've been informed by my agenda I have to come and laugh at this joke.
However, as I've yet to see the movie I've postponed it another year
